I Love Lucy, vote on all your main favorite I Love Lucy characters, post your favorite scenes and episodes.

Post pictures, trivia, biographys, this thread
is about Lucy and Ricky, Lucy and Desi.

Lucielle Ball, was born Aug 06 -1911 to Apr 26 1989 in Jamestown New York, Celoron a suburb of Jamestown.

Desi Arnaz, was born Mar 02 1917 to Dec 02 1986
in Santiago de Cuba.

I have included Gale Gordon in the poll, a good dear friend of Lucy, of the The Lucy show, Here's Lucy still shown in reruns from time to time as well as in I love Lucy, made two guest apperances.

All the books I have read on Lucy at
my public library have been very boring,
very badly written..

The one good book I found was A Book by Desi Arnaz, Desi could not think of a name for the book, so he called it A Book, I would recomend it, as it will have you laughing from cover to cover, LOL.

Desi came to America in 1933 poor, when he was teenager, his first job was cleaning bird cages, then he made his fortune $ .

Desi was not a poor Cuban boy in Cuba,
he came from an upper class family.

I have seen interviews with Desi Arnaz Jr
and Lucie Arnaz, her daughter, it is clear
they would have loved for thier parents
marriage to workout like the I Love Lucy
show and theme song.

I as a native born Cuban, now Cuban
American Citizen, would have loved that
too.

The I Love Lucy Theme Song:

I love Lucy and she loves me
We're as happy as two can be
Sometimes we quarrel but then
How we love making up again
Lucy kisses like no one can
She's my Mrs. and I'm her man
And life is heaven you see
'Cause I love Lucy
Yes I love Lucy
And Lucy loves me!

I never really liked the show, a bit before my time perhaps?

This show is a classic. I grew up waching this show, as did every member of my family. Its funny because this show happens to be on at almost anytime, somewhere on some station in America. It also innovated the current 3 camera technique you see in most shows on TV today.

I cant believe this, I Love Lucy, a show that is shown all over the USA, probably Canada and Europe, probably all over the world.

I wasn't aware there were words to the "theme." The only theme I know of is completely instrumental. Perhaps the reruns on FOX et al were cut?

Yah, Gilligan's Island was crap. But Ginger was kinda hot. :P

These two people took extraordinarily long periods of time to be born.

Hehe.

I Loathe Lucy.

I think Desi is hot.

It actually wasn't that unusual for tv themes to have lyrics even when the songs were performed instrumentally. Sanford and Son is another example of that.

I think Desi is hot.

I guess he fell into the dark and handsome category-I dont know how tall he was.
I worked with a guy that used to crank up his argentine accent whenever he dealt with women. I could actually see some swoon. And the guy was one of the lowest low -lifes I've known.

No opinion.

I've never seen I Love Lucy, actually. When I see the name 'Lucy', I think of the character from the anime series Elfen Lied.

They say Ricky - Desi was a real Cuban, great sense of humor, latin temper, ladies man, smart, great business man, he could put his arms around you, give you a big abrazo - Hug, and convince you of anything.

Elfen Lied is awesome.

I never seen I Love Lucy either, i dont think it ever aired here. If it did i missed it.
